A Find Your Story fiction workshop
The classifieds section of a newspaper are places where small community ads appear for a variety of different things, from items for sale to real estate and even dating. Their modern analogue includes online lists such as Craigslist as well as social media forms such as Facebook Marketplace. Brief and economical, these short pieces of writing provide a keyhole-sized window into the inner lives of their authors, and in so doing suggest and imply narrative. In this workshop we will explore the narrative possibilities of classified ads and how they lend themselves so well to flash fiction.
